Is having sex with other people the key to a happy marriage?

Abbey and Liam have been together for 12 years. They have slept with other people for the majority of that time alongside navigating raising their five year old son. 

Non-monogamy is not a new thing, but it is becoming a term more people are open to. But can it really be that easy?

In this No Filter episode, guest host Kate Langbroek discovers how they decided an open relationship was right for them. They describe what their first threesome was like and how they organise their dating schedules around their marriage.

And Kate uncovers what it’s really like when you enjoy the thought of your partner being with someone else.
